"If AI takes over office jobs, we'll just have to do manual labor" - they said..
🚨Meanwhile, the Figure robot is working an 8-hour shift sorting packages.
It needs to identify the barcode on the package and flip it with the barcode facing down. When the battery runs low after 3-4 hours, another robot comes to replace it.
And this is all happening live. (I can't attach the link here due to Square's restrictions) ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
What do you think about this hustle?)
⛔️⛔️By the way, at my last job, where I worked for many years, the whole department got shut down and now all the work is done by AI.
📌Trump and Musk in Beijing -Trump has landed in China with a delegation of business leaders (Elon Musk, heads of Nvidia, Apple, Citi) -The goal of the visit is to seal a deal on "managed trade" worth $30 billion and open up Chinese markets
📌Iran -US intelligence reports that Iran has restored 70% of its missile capability and control over facilities in the Strait of Hormuz -Tehran is a few weeks away from producing weapon-grade uranium, and China, according to US data, is considering secret arms shipments
📌Ukraine -Putin is focusing on seizing Donbas to leverage territory in Kherson and Zaporizhia at upcoming negotiations -In Europe, there are discussions about Angela Merkel as a potential mediator
📌Defense Sector -China has doubled its production of J-20 fighters thanks to fully autonomous "dark factories" -Rheinmetall has started mass production of kamikaze drones with a range of 100 km -Volkswagen, together with Rafael, is upgrading a factory in Germany to produce military trucks under PPA -The UAE is secretly coordinating actions with Israel against Iran, deploying "Iron Dome" systems

The blue line in the screenshot represents the average buy price for the "holders of one cycle" - those who bought BTC around 2-3 years ago, at the beginning of the last bull run.
Currently, their average price is ~$89,000.
As soon as $BTC dips below this mark, a technical bear market begins. It becomes genuine under two conditions:
🔸 there has been no forced-major (when all markets crash simultaneously) 🔸 the price stays below the average buy price of cycle holders for more than 2 months.
Right now, both conditions are met✅. -------------------
📍Duration and depth of the decline In the three previous cycles, bear markets lasted from 9 to 17 months, and the depth reached 50-55% below the average price of cycle holders.
The current bear market has just crossed the 3-month mark, and the decline is currently limited to 22%.
If we split $89,000 in half, we get ~$45,000 as potential bottom. On average, this takes about 12-13 months, indicating the first quarter of 2027.
⛔️These are fractal calculations with no guarantees.
Could things be different this time? Easily - as this cycle has introduced ETFs, tariffs, and other new variables.
But it's worth keeping these numbers in mind as a reference. ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
What do you think? How does this analysis from a well-known CIS influencer sit with you?
It turns out the structure is pretty similar - the same "basket", the same bounce, and the same hope in the eyes of holders $BTC 🤭🤭
The bottom of 2018 featured a nice parabolic support followed by a rocket ride 🚀 Are we expecting the same for 2026?? What do you think? ———————————————— #bitcoin #BTC #prediction

💵💥Clarity Act - US Senate Updates the Game Rules for the Crypto Market
The US Senate Banking Committee has published a new version of the CLARITY bill, which outlines the structure of the crypto market.
Key Points: 🔸Ban on yield from stablecoins - you won't be able to earn profits just by holding them or through mechanisms similar to bank interest
🔸The crypto industry as a whole supports the new rules regarding stablecoins
🔸Banks are unhappy - they consider the restrictions weak and fear a deposit exodus to stablecoins
🔸The bill contains no prohibitions for politicians (including Trump) to profit from crypto projects
🔸The committee will vote on Thursday and consider possible amendments ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ 🔴What does this mean for crypto traders?
It means that you won't be able to earn interest from staking stablecoins on exchanges and brokers - in other words, products like "earn" on USDT/USDC will become illegal in the US, and platforms will need to seek alternatives (staking, tokenized loans, etc.).
Today, an interesting piece of news popped up in the Ukrainian media. Let's break it down🤝.
By the way, did you know that Ukraine has official structures that have been studying UFOs since the Soviet era? This is news to me) ➖➖➖➖
So here it is: Serhiy "Flash", advisor to the Minister of Defense of Ukraine, revealed that in 2023, aerial reconnaissance observed a strange unidentified object in the sky.
And the kicker is that right after the video was published, representatives from some government agency, which has been dealing with these issues in Ukraine since Soviet times, reached out to him.
So there’s some kind of agency that the general public doesn’t know about, but it’s been around for a while and is clearly keeping tabs on the topic😕
Since the start of the war, research on UFOs has turned more into a military task than a civilian one, because new enemy weaponry could be hiding behind these anomalies.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine even have a special document regarding UFOs, approved by Commander-in-Chief Syrskiy. ➖➖➖➖
So it’s not just the USA that is dealing with aliens and flying saucers.
Serhiy "Flash" urged all UFO witnesses to send their video materials to the email of the Ukrainian military intelligence GUR (I can't post the email here, but it's available on Google) ➖➖➖➖
What do you think? Has anyone personally seen anything like this? 🤔
📌USA-Iran-China -Trump is heading to Beijing, planning to put the squeeze on Xi Jinping over China's purchase of Iranian oil and arms exports. -Negotiations: Iran rejected the US proposal for a ceasefire, putting forth its own demands that Washington labeled unacceptable. -The US Navy publicly announced the arrival of an Ohio-class nuclear submarine in Gibraltar.
📌Ukraine -Long-range drones: Ukraine and Germany have agreed to jointly produce UAVs with a range of up to 1500 km. -The Yermak case: NABU and SAP reported a suspicion against former head of the President’s Office Andriy Yermak for laundering around $11 million through real estate. -A project to recognize Gagauz as an indigenous people has been registered in Parliament.
📌Israel -Netanyahu announced plans to cut US financial aid to zero. -The EU has imposed sanctions against radical settlers in the West Bank. -Netanyahu's office accused the EU of "moral bankruptcy."
📌Miscellaneous -Food crisis: Due to tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, prices for fuel and fertilizers have skyrocketed, threatening a rice shortage in Asia. -Relatives of shooting victims in the US are suing OpenAI, claiming that ChatGPT advised the attacker on timing and weapon selection. -In Britain, 60 Labour MPs called for Keir Starmer to resign.
‼️ Something important has happened in the market.
For the first time since January 26, $BTC , the week has closed above the $82,000 mark! This is powerful!
📈 What's up with the charts: 🔸 At the $82,200 level, BTC broke out of the ascending wedge, and the weekly MACD indicator finally flipped to a bullish signal. 🔸 RSI hit 52 points - that's a move into the positive zone. 🔸 The price has returned above the 20-week moving average for the first time in 2026. 🔸 The nearest support zone is at $74,000.
🔴 The next 4 days are crucial - On May 14, the Senate Banking Committee votes on the Clarity Act. - The fund has closed six green weeks in a row - if stability holds, capital could flow into crypto. - However, any dip in stocks will drag it down.
🔑 Macro factors are shaping an interesting picture: - The Russell 2000 has made a multi-year breakout and is trading near records; - ISM fourth month above 52 - crossing the 56 mark historically triggers parabolic growth in crypto; core inflation is at a five-year low; - M2 is hitting records; - The question of a new Fed Chair might be resolved in the coming weeks. ------------
⛔️⛔️⛔️ Caution: Signals look promising, but the classic pattern "Sunday - up, Monday - down" hasn't disappeared.
‼️ The coming days will show if there's real strength behind this movement.
In 1950, US intelligence agencies recorded an extraordinary incident.
The document marked "TOP SECRET" contained a detailed description of what was found at the scene.
The editor of Kansas City Star knew about this story but refused to publish it, calling it "too fantastical." ━━━━━━
👽 Description of entities:
"All of them were around 90 cm tall; light-haired, beardless, with perfect teeth, completely free of fillings and cavities.
They weren't wearing underwear, but their bodies were wrapped in something resembling tape, and on top was something akin to wire. Whether this was clothing or something functional related to piloting the ship is unknown.
Food in tablet form was discovered on the ship." ━━━━━━━
📍 Where's the info from?
Mr. Fik, known in circles related to Kansas City Star, was the one who brought this story to the public.
Fik believed that the government intentionally did not establish security at the scene so that information could spread freely and people gradually adapted to the idea of interplanetary travel. And that the official announcement wouldn't cause mass panic.
The information was passed to the Special Investigations Division, the Director of Intelligence, and the Chief of Staff of the US Air Force. In other words, to the highest level.

Binance Alpha has become one of the hottest and most talked-about products on Binance among crypto enthusiasts in 2025.
I've mentioned a few times how much I've made from airdrops on Alpha, and I've noticed you guys have been really responsive to this topic. So, I decided to put together a quick video for a surface-level overview of Alpha.
A pilot project, so to speak 😅😎
If there's demand, I'll try to make the next video on how to rack up Alpha Points and scoop those airdrops)
💥😵😵Ethereum's share is melting away before our eyes
👑Ethereum is losing its crown in DeFi - dominance dropped from 63% to 54%.
📍What's the deal? Basically, if you sum up all the cash locked in existing DeFi protocols, the largest chunk of that dough has always been in the Ethereum network. It’s been way ahead of the other chains.
But as we can see, the situation is shifting and slowly changing. ➖➖➖
Who's sharing the pie:
🔸BNB Chain - caters to all the Binance lovers (that’s like half the crypto space😅).
🔸Tron - the king of stablecoins, especially USDT.
🔸Solana - fast trading, cheap fees, meme coins popping up every 5 milliseconds. ➖➖➖
What does this mean? - that $ETH is losing market dominance just like my portfolio, where I scooped up a bunch of that Ethereum 😅
What about you? Are you holding Ethereum? What are your hopes? Waiting for 10k?🤭🤭

📌Iran: Blockade and nuclear course - Tehran considers the maritime blockade an act of war and threatens to close the Strait of Hormuz. - Amidst attacks from the USA and Israel, discussions on creating nuclear weapons have intensified in Iran. - In the US, they believe that the wounded Mojtaba Khamenei continues to lead the war.

📌Other Selcuk Bayraktar warned against "tech-capitalistic domination," which transforms human life into an algorithmic simulation.
Bitcoin's dominance has dropped from a 5-week uptrend, and the daily MACD has flipped bearish. ━━━━━━━━ 🔸What does this mean?
It means that $BTC has slightly "pulled back" in relation to altcoins - and all the altcoins are already rubbing their hands together, getting ready for a potential altseason🟢
$ETH and the crew see this as a long-awaited signal for growth ━━━━━━━━
*Bitcoin dominance is its share of the total market cap of the entire crypto market. When it falls - it means that capital is being spread more widely across the market, and alts start to rise faster than BTC.
It doesn't necessarily mean that someone is selling Bitcoin to buy ETH - it's just that new money entering the market is flowing more into alts than into BTC 📊
Friends, how are you? Ready for altseason? Holding any alts?
